Login Problem (and what to do) - Affects New Users - FIXED

This started happening recently - not sure of the cause yet, but just so people know, new users, after activating their registration, will get the following (or some variation of it) when they try to log in (this is the symptom):

People who haven't logged in for a few months will also get the above message.

This is the problem:Clicking on any of the links does nothing - just redisplays the above errors, and doesn't let you do anything.

Update 5/10 - the problem has been fixed (clicking on any of the links will bring you to your profile page so you can fill in the required fields).

If you encounter this problem, please let me know. I can populate those fields with random values so you can log in. Once logged in, you can change them.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

In this particular case, I believe it's anytime before January 30th, when the site got upgraded.

I am that rrreeeeellllyyy lllloooonnngg time guy, seeing as Schriever AFB blocked the site, I don't remember when it was. I guess they wanted us to quit screwing around. Idiots, like we actually had the time. Shoot the only time I visited then was on lunch. Home computers rule!!!

FYI - this is still a problem. I was hoping to have it fixed by now, but I've been pretty busy. I've made this back into a global announcemen.

The problem has been fixed!

I'm going to leave this as an announcement for a couple of more days just in case there are still some problems I didn't catch in my testing. If anybody still has this problem, please let me know.
